Let $A$ be an algebra over a commutative ring $k$. We prove that braidings on the category of $A$-bimodules are in bijective correspondence to canonical R-matrices, these are elements in $A\ot A\ot A$ satisfying certain axioms. We show that…
A new proof of the classification for tensor ideal thick subcategories of the bounded derived category, and the stable category, of modular representations of a finite group is obtained. The arguments apply more generally to yield a…
We develop the theory of Hopf bimodules for a finite rigid tensor category C. Then we use this theory to define a distinguished invertible object D of C and an isomorphism of tensor functors ?^{**} and D tensor ^{**}? tensor D^{-1}. This…
We revisit the definition of Cartesian differential categories, showing that a slightly more general version is useful for a number of reasons. As one application, we show that these general differential categories are comonadic over…
Within the framework of braided or quasisymmetric monoidal categories braided Q-supersymmetry is investigated, where Q is a certain functorial isomorphism in a braided symmetric monoidal category. For an ordinary (co-)quasitriangular Hopf…
We introduce a representation theory of q-Lie algebras defined earlier in \cite{DG1}, \cite{DG2}, formulated in terms of braided modules. We also discuss other ways to define Lie algebra-like objects related to quantum groups, in…
We give a combinatorial model for the bounded derived category of graded modules over the dual numbers in terms of arcs on the integer line with a point at infinity. Using this model we describe the lattice of thick subcategories of the…
We relate commutative algebras in braided tensor categories to braid-reversed tensor equivalences, motivated by vertex algebra representation theory. First, for $\mathcal{C}$ a braided tensor category, we give a detailed construction of the…
We define the notion of whiskered categories and groupoids, showing that whiskered groupoids have a commutator theory. So also do whiskered $R$-categories, thus answering questions of what might be `commutative versions' of these theories.…
A Cartan Calculus of Lie derivatives, differential forms, and inner derivations, based on an undeformed Cartan identity, is constructed. We attempt a classification of various types of quantum Lie algebras and present a fairly general…
We introduce two new algebras that we call \emph{tied--boxed Hecke algebra} and \emph{tied--boxed Temperley--Lieb algebra}. The first one is a subalgebra of the algebra of braids and ties introduced by Aicardi and Juyumaya, and the second…
We develop the Morita theory of fusion 2-categories. In order to do so, we begin by proving that the relative tensor product of modules over a separable algebra in a fusion 2-category exists. We use this result to construct the Morita…
Recent developments in the theory of stability conditions and its relation to Teichmuller theory have revealed a deep connection between triangulated categories and surfaces. Motivated by this, we prove a categorical analogue of the…
We introduce and study the new notion of an {\em exact factorization} $\mathcal{B}=\mathcal{A}\bullet \mathcal{C}$ of a fusion category $\mathcal{B}$ into a product of two fusion subcategories $\mathcal{A},\mathcal{C}\subseteq \mathcal{B}$…
In \cite[Rem. 3.4]{DNO} the authors asked the question if any \'etale subalgebra of an \'etale algebra in a braided fusion category is also \'etale. We give a positive answer to this question if the braided fusion category $\cc$ is…
We introduce and develop a language of semigroups over the braid groups for a study of braid monodromy factorizations (bmf's) of plane algebraic curves and other related objects. As an application we give a new proof of Orevkov's theorem on…
This article is an exposition of certain connections between the braid groups, classical homotopy groups of the 2-sphere, as well as Lie algebras attached to the descending central series of pure braid groups arising as Vassiliev invariants…
We give a characterization of finite pointed tensor categories obtained as de-equivariantizations of finite-dimensional pointed Hopf algebras over abelian groups only in terms of the (cohomology class of the) associator of the pointed part.…
A relationship between curved differential algebras and corings is established and explored. In particular it is shown that the category of semi-free curved differential graded algebras is equivalent to the category of corings with…
We introduce the notion of a $\textit{reflection fusion category}$, which is a type of a $G$-crossed category generated by objects of Frobenius-Perron dimension $1$ and $\sqrt{p}$, where $p$ is an odd prime. We show that such categories…
